O R D E R

Mr.M.N.Kathir, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that, despite his best efforts, he could not contact the petitioner and moreover, since the issue is of the year 2006 with regard to reservation of constituency, that most probably would have become infructuous, that is the reason why the petitioner has not contacted the counsel. Hence, the learned counsel for the petitioner reports 'No instruction'. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
